    I think it's a 93 Prestige. I've not seen rack bosses on the side of the wishbone on any P7 prior to 2000. Like the one in @Mod-Master post my 93 Prestige doesn't have them but they do show in the 93 catalogue. Current decals on it are circa 96/97. Maybe used at time of repaint if...

    Orange P7 Info

    Dunno about that! Strange one that. Certainly got 1998-1999 decals on it. 99 frame would have disc mount so earlier. 98 colours were Team Orange & Red but it's Orange so their green wouldn't be a surprise ! The seat clamp is throwing me - should be a separate clamp for 96-98. Does it...

    Paint/anodising touch up and colour match

    I bought a pack of paints specifically for frame touchups. You can mix just about any colour apparently. Haven't used it yet but got a user due a major refurb this summer & a few builds that'll need a touchup so we'll see. I've used nail varnish in the past. https://www.gpaintbikes.co.uk/

    Site Suggestions (and Issues) Thread

    Great to hear that. @MattWServices is the best server host I have ever been with. All my sites are on his servers. @john - one option is to remove hard delete from moderator permissions. With soft delete an admin can always find thread from the moderator logs & restore.

    Green Orange lemon

    Outstanding result! My Evo2 surprised me. A local 'bargain' that was more of a rescue project than I expected. Lovely to ride.

    Orange P7 2002 19in Frame 26in Wheels - Value ?

    Lovely bike. Great graphics that year. Same geo as the earlier P7's but with disc option. I paid £60 for the same frame about 4 years ago & the market was quite buoyant then. Not so much now. Maybe £200-250 imo with a fair wind. As ever splitting may achieve more.

    How much longer can I go without a mobile phone?

    Late adopter here but had a works one starting way back with one the size of a house brick. Eventually got my own about 12 years ago. I find it very handy. Camera - photo processing app - photo albums (cloud) - music, radio, internet, email, timer, alarm clock, torch, banking, cash machine...

    Gravel bike packing, its all done wrong IMO

    I use full length as its only 145g but if using 3/4 length you can always substitute with other gear underneath legs.

    Mangizmos "Rant Of The Day"

    My lad just got a Genesis Croix de Fer. Even if he hadn't got his staff discount they're not a bad price. He got the flat bar version which was a bit cheaper. More bosses than Old Nick. Even when you add the extra cost of downgrades such as padded tractor saddle, 2nd set of brake levers...

    Gravel bike packing, its all done wrong IMO

    Way to go @hamster! Another Karrimat (well the modern incarnation from Multimat) user here. Used them all year round including tours in Norway on snow every night. According to the disciples of the outdoor vloggeratti we should be dying of exposure due to their appallingly low 'R' value or...

    Low stack stem recommendations needed.

    Thanks. Could be useful for someone. Although I didn't specify in my post I'm looking for zero to low rise. -/+20 degrees would be too much. https://shop.fullspeedahead.com/en/prodotti_1/stems/sl-k-drop-stem
